Reliable Commercial HVAC Replacement & Installation Services in Ocala, The Villages, and Crystal River
A properly functioning HVAC system is critical for maintaining comfort, productivity, and indoor air quality in any commercial environment—especially in Florida’s hot and humid climate, where temperatures regularly exceed 90°. Whether you’re operating a retail space, office, medical facility, or industrial building, your business depends on a system that can handle the demands of the space efficiently.

Types of Air Conditioning and Heating Systems We Install
Homes across Central Florida are equipped with a variety of HVAC systems. At Aire Masters, we have the experience and expertise to install or replace virtually any type of air conditioning and heating system found in the region. Whether you’re upgrading an older unit or installing a system in a new home, we’ve got you covered.
Here are the most common HVAC systems we install and replace throughout Central Florida:
Heat Pump Split Systems
The most common type of Air Conditioning System found in Central Florida is the Heat Pump Split System. Heat Pump Split Systems are made up of an outdoor Heat Pump Condenser and an indoor Air Handler. Pictured here is the Trane XV20 Variable Speed Heat Pump Split System with the Tam9 Hyperion Air Handler. It can be paired with high-efficiency Filtration Systems like the Trane Clean Effects Air Purification System.
Air Conditioning Split Systems
More common in Southern Florida, but still prevalent in many rental homes is the Air Conditioning Split System. Air Conditioning Split Systems are made up of an outdoor air conditioner and and indoor air handler. Because we do experience colder weather in Central Florida, we often upgrade these systems to heat pump systems. This is especially true since there are energy company rebates and sometimes even tax incentives to do so. Pictured here is the Trane XR14 air conditioner with a Tem6 Variable Speed Air Handler.
Air Conditioning Split Systems With Gas Furnaces
Another incredibly popular HVAC system found in the areas we service is the Air Conditioning Split System featuring a gas furnace. The Gas/AC split system is incredibly popular in The Villages, and it’s also used in much of Downtown Ocala, and luxury neighborhoods in Ocala. These systems offer more effective and cheaper heating performance. These systems are comprised of an outdoor air conditioner, a gas furnace, and an evaporator coil. Pictured Here is the Trane XV20 Variable Speed Air Conditioner paired with an 80%, Variable Speed TUD Furnace.
Package Air Conditioning Systems
Central Florida, particularly Ocala, Summerfield, and The Villages have an abundance of Mobile and Modular Homes. These houses are most frequently equipped with Package Air Conditioners or Package Heat Pump Systems. We even see some areas with Package Gas/AC systems. Pictured here is Trane’s XL15 2-Stage Package Heat Pump System.
Ductless Mini Split Systems
Traditionally used to cool additions or lanais, the ductless mini split air conditioning system is extremely popular in Central Florida. We install mini split air conditioner and heat pump split systems in Ocala, The Villages, and nearby areas every day. While they are most commonly used in lanais, these have also been an excellent option for additions, for apartments in barns, and mobile homes. These systems are also available as multi-zone systems. In multi-zone ductless AC split systems, you can have up to five individual heads or even a ducted air handler used to cool an entire home. Pictured here is a ductless high-wall Mitsubishi/Trane unit that we frequently install in bedrooms or lanais.
While these are the most common HVAC systems we encounter, we still offer solutions for other types of systems as well. Other HVAC systems include water-to-air heat pump systems, or self-contained systems.

Air Conditioning Installation & Replacement FAQs
What does SEER Rating mean for your AC system?
SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio and reflects how efficiently an air conditioner cools your home. A higher SEER rating means better energy savings and lower utility bills. Choosing a unit with a higher SEER rating is a smart investment for long-term homeowners.
How much should I expect to pay for a new AC system?
The cost of a new air conditioner varies based on system type and features. Standard central units typically range from $6,000–$10,000, while high-efficiency systems with advanced features can cost between $10,000–$20,000. Choosing a trusted HVAC installer and reliable brand matters just as much as price.
How do I know what size air conditioner I need?
Proper AC sizing depends on your home's square footage, insulation levels, window exposure, and layout. The most accurate way to determine the right size is to have a professional perform a Manual J load calculation.
What’s the average lifespan of HVAC systems in Florida?
In Florida's climate, most AC systems last around 10–15 years. With consistent maintenance, some can last up to 20 years. Heat, humidity, and usage patterns all impact the life of your system.
When is it time to replace my AC unit?
Consider replacement if your system is over 10 years old, the warranty has expired, or you’re facing frequent breakdowns and high energy bills. Upgrading before failure can prevent costly emergencies and improve comfort year-round.
What are the benefits of replacing an old HVAC system?
- Improved Efficiency: Newer units offer higher SEER and HSPF2 ratings, reducing electricity use and monthly bills.
- Enhanced Comfort: Modern AC systems offer better humidity control, quieter operation, and more even cooling.
- Fewer Repairs: Replacing your system early reduces the risk of unexpected breakdowns during peak summer heat.
